The Klippert series offers a systematic skills training based on the methodology of Dr. Heinz Klippert. Each booklet methodically presents two core or curriculum topics. Students engage with various aspects of a topic using fully developed lesson units with lesson plans and corresponding photocopiable templates/worksheets, thereby training important overarching competencies. They primarily learn to work independently and take responsibility for their own learning. This increasingly relieves teachers, allowing them more time to focus intensively on individual students. With the help of this booklet, you will train your students in the following competencies: - Clearly represent associations - Answer questions based on the text - Understand technical terms related to the characteristics of short stories - Interpret the thoughts and behaviors of characters in the text - Develop their own interpretations of a text.
